A message to my husband when he was trying to decide what job he is called to do. He has the opportunity to stay where he is comfortable or leave and try something new. After reading through some Bible verses and writing this to him, a thought popped into my head. For awhile now, Jason has wondered about applying for other jobs and even applied for a couple as well as talked to other customers about working other places. While all these jobs, the door was closed right away with either a job Jason knew he wouldn't enjoy, the pay was too low, or someone else was hired for the position, this job is wide open with exactly what Jason is wanting to do, with pay that is right, benefits that are great...nothing looks like a door closing. I had this thought and think it is God giving me peace about the new job offered to him. Maybe that will be encouragement to him as well.
"We can make our plans, but the LORD determines our steps." Psalm 16:9
All of this may not have been your plan for your life, but just remember
God has a reason for all this. He is determining your steps. I know
he doesn't close one door without opening another. In your case, he
opened another without closing the other. Follow your heart and "Trust
in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding" Proverbs 3:5
Just wanted to let you know I'm thinking about you today and praying
for you. I wanted to send some encouragement your way and wanted to let
you know whatever decision you make, I will be by your side supporting
you! I know God knows the plans for your life...for our life. They are
"plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a
future." Whatever you decide I know you "can do all things through
Christ, who strengthens you."
"The LORD will guide you continually..."Isaiah 58:11
Love you babe and praying for you! You're awesome and just remember
whatever decision you make, it's a good decision. Either way God has
blessed you with a new opportunity. I'm excited about the changes and
give God all the glory!
